Windows 7 all MS updates through 3/16
On 3/16 I performed a Windows Update. Last WinUpdate prior to that was 2/21, then 2/20. Since then I have lost my ability to use the on-board wireless connections. Tried Fn+F2 several times; tried the Windows wireless resolution manager; tried shutdown/restart; each situation with no luck.
Win 7 Device Manager doesn't show any warnings or yellow triangles. I can use an external USB AirLink 101 adapter and it works fine and the system finds the locally available networks. I am on this as I type! No VMs running. Wired connection works fine also. Just the on-board wireless that doesn't, afaik.
Ideas for what to do without doing a system restore?
TIA!
